INside The Mirror

I stare into the mirror
But myself I do not see
It seems as though a stranger
Is staring back at me

Some one else appears
As my reflection fades away
It looks as though this stranger?s heart
Has been lead astray

I see the scars left on her wrists,
Her legs and up her arms
I see the glisten from the blade
That lies inside her palm

I see her make incisions
One, two, three and four
I see the blood run down her arm
And drip onto the floor

She takes the blade down further
And she cuts herself again
Her heart is slowly beating
As she takes away the pain

This girl she makes me cry
She could really use a friend
Someone she can trust
And say it's not the end

Stubborn she refuses to listen
Because she's been hurt too many times
Not a soul she can trust
As she?s hoping to die

I feel like I have known this girl
Forever, all my life
It feels like I'm familiar
With her usage of the knife

I start to open my eyes
And now that I can see
The girl was not a stranger
This girl inside the mirror, it was me
